Mafia King's Substitute Wife CHAPTER 73: GOODBYE
The dimly lit hallway of the mansion seemed to stretch on forever, the shadows dancing on the walls like specters of my guilt. It was 4:30 AM, the city still shrouded in the dark veil of night, the only sound the distant hum of the city outside the windows. I stood frozen, my heart heavy with the weight of what I was about to do. I took a deep breath, trying to calm the storm raging inside me. This was part of the plan, I reminded myself. Get in, get the info, and get out. But it wasn't that simple anymore. The lines between Charlotte and Carmine had blurred, like the edges of a watercolor painting left out in the rain. I looked into the bedroom where Sylus and Natalia were sleeping. Sylus' arm was wrapped around his pillow, like he was holding onto something precious, his chest rising and falling with each gentle breath. Natalia was curled up with her favorite stuffed animal, a tiny smile on her face, her eyelids fluttering with a dream. I felt a pang in my chest, like a violin str
Mafia King's Substitute Wife CHAPTER 72: LAST MOMENTS
The autumn sun cast a golden glow over New York City as Sylus suggested a family outing with Natalia. "Let's spend the day in Central Park," he said, his voice low and smooth, like the jazz playing in the background.I felt a pang in my chest, a quiet ache that I'd been trying to ignore. This was it. Soon, I'd have to leave. But for now, I wanted to savor this day, to bottle it up and keep it forever.We walked through the Upper East Side streets, the trees lining the sidewalk like sentinels, their leaves rustling in the gentle breeze. Natalia skipped ahead, her laughter carrying on the wind, as she chased after a squirrel that was trying to steal a pretzel from a street vendor.As we entered the park, Sylus took my hand, his fingers intertwining with mine like they belonged there. Like we were a real couple, a real family. I felt a flutter in my chest, a tiny spark of hope that I quickly tamped down. This wasn't real, I reminded myself. It was just a job, a means to an end.We stroll
Mafia King's Substitute Wife CHAPTER 71: FALLING
"Thank you for taking care of me when I got sick," Luke said to me as he handed me a cup of iced coffee. He went to the company to return the jacket that I have forgotten at his pad. I shook my head and smiled at him. "It's alright. If you don't feel really well, just call me. I can take care of you." "Oh, so you are a nurse now?" "Well, I won't say that I'm good at it, but I think I was able to take care of you." He nodded his head and smiled, "You're right. If you didn't stay that night, for sure my fever would've gotten worse." "It's nothing. By the way, thanks for the coffee." "Alright. By the way, where is Sylus?" he suddenly asked. "He is in a meeting right now." "I see. By the way, how's your family's company? Is it doing alright now?" I nodded my head as I put the cup of coffee down. "It's doing really fine now. My dad is already asking me to go back to my normal life as Carmine, but I don't think I can just leave whenever I want." Luke stared at me for
Mafia King's Substitute Wife CHAPTER 70: SUBMISSION
I felt a flutter in my chest as Sylus's eyes locked onto mine, his gaze burning with intensity. "Fine," I said. "But if I am late for work, you're the one to blame." Sylus chuckled, his eyes sparkling with amusement. "I'll take the risk then," he said, his voice low and husky. I could feel my hands shaking as I reached out and wrapped my hand around his shaft. It was soft and warm, and I could feel it twitching in my hand as I began to stroke it gently. Sylus's eyes closed, his head tilting back as I worked my hand up and down his length. I felt a surge of power, knowing that I was the one making him feel that way. "Use your mouth," he suddenly whispered, his voice barely audible. I was hesitating at first, but then I leaned forward, my lips brushing against the head of his shaft. It was soft and smooth, and I could taste the saltiness of his skin. I licked my lips, trying to gather my courage. I never did this with anyone before, and I still can't believe I am doing t
Mafia King's Substitute Wife CHAPTER 69: THE PAYMENT
I opened the door to our apartment, expecting a quiet morning after taking care of Luke. But as I stepped inside, I saw Sylus lounging on the couch, looking way too smug . He was wearing those low-slung jeans that made him look like he just rolled out of bed – which, knowing him, he probably did – and a plain white shirt that was unbuttoned at the top, showing a hint of his chest. His hair was messy, and his eyes sparkled with amusement as he looked up at me. "Charlotte," he said, standing up and walking towards me with that lazy confidence of his. His eyes scanned me like he was checking if I was okay, lingering on my face a bit longer than necessary. "How's Luke?" I shrugged, trying to play it cool as I dropped my bag on the floor. "He's fine. Better now." I kicked off my shoes and walked towards the kitchen, trying to put some distance between us. I needed a moment to breathe after dealing with Luke's weirdness about the portrait. Sylus followed me into the kitchen, leaning a
Mafia King's Substitute Wife CHAPTER 68: THE GIRL IN THE PORTRAIT
I was sitting beside Luke, watching him sleep, when he suddenly stirred. "Carmine...?" he whispered, his voice barely audible. I immediately stood up and went to his side. "I'm here, Luke. Do you need something?" I asked, trying to sound calm. He looked at me, his eyes hazy and confused. "Who... who are you?" he asked, his brow furrowed in confusion. I felt a pang of worry. Was he okay? Was his fever getting worse? I tried to keep my voice steady. "I'm Carmine, Luke. Your... friend. Do you remember me?" Luke's eyes searched my face, and for a moment, I thought he was going to recognize me. But then he shook his head, his eyes clouding over. "I... I don't know. What's happening?" I felt a shiver run down my spine. What was going on? Was this normal? I tried to think of what to do, but my mind was a blank. Just then, Luke's eyes started to droop, and he leaned back into the pillows, his body relaxing. "Luke? Luke, stay awake," I said, trying to keep him conscious. But it w
Mafia King's Substitute Wife CHAPTER 54: AS CHARLOTTE
As soon as I stepped out of the bathroom, I saw Sylus already lying on the bed while reading a book. I was surprised when he suddenly looked at me. "Come here, babe." For some reason, I started feeling nervous as if Sylus was going to do something I wouldn't like. "Come here," he repeated, pat
Mafia King's Substitute Wife CHAPTER 53: CONTINUATION
"Where did you sleep last night? that was the first thing that Sylus asked me the moment I stepped inside his office. "I-I slept at Luke's place," I replied, trying to sound casual. He raised an eyebrow as if he wasn't believing what I just said, then he stood up without taking his eyes off me. "
Mafia King's Substitute Wife CHAPTER 52: OUR DEAL
I woke up with my head feeling so heavy. I opened my eyes and found out I was in an unfamiliar room. I immediately sat up and roamed my eyes around the room. Whose house is this? Wait, how did I even get here? Just when I was about to stand up, the door went open and I was surprised when I saw
Mafia King's Substitute Wife CHAPTER 51: UNDERSTANDING
"What did you say? Charlotte Greene's brother found out about your pretention? How did that happen? How did he find out about it?" I nodded my head. "He's a doctor, dad. For sure he noticed some things that were inconsistent, and from that he concluded that maybe I was a different person. He inv
